Lemon Curd
"This Lemon Curd Recipe is made with just 4 ingredients and ready in 20 minutes! It's made by slowly cooking eggs, sugar, and fresh lemon juice on the stove, giving it a smooth, creamy texture. The balance of tart and sweet makes it perfect for filling cakes, spreading on scones, or adding to desserts. The result is a tangy, homemade curd that tastes like summertime. Lemon desserts are a Southern tradition. The bright, lemony flavor takes any basic dessert to the next level, giving it a vibrant layer that tastes like sunshine. One of the best ways to take basic desserts from boring to amazing is by using lemon curd. Lemon curd is a custard-like filling made with items you have in your pantry, eggs, sugar, lemon juice, and butter. To make it, you start by whisking the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar over a low heat. Then, you let it thicken and add the butter to make it super silky."
